Full Moon Party Koh Phangan: Everything You Need to Know Before You Go (2026)
Once a month, the beach at Haad Rin on Koh Phangan hosts what is genuinely one of the biggest recurring parties on the planet. Around 10,000 to 30,000 people descend on a stretch of sand lit up by fire skipping ropes, paint-covered bodies, and a wall of sound bars that runs the full length of the shore. If you are backpacking Southeast Asia and you miss it, you will absolutely hear about it from everyone who didn't.
